Description: | Knapped flint flake with a notch. The flake is a sub-rectangle in plan. The flint has developed an off-white patina, therefore the original colour is not known. The dorsal surface has a series of vertical negative scars of varying length. The ventral surface has the blb of percussion with bulbar scars and concentric rings. One side edge has a semi-circular notch which has been knapped. The notch is 7mm across. Otherwise the flake measures 54.42mm long and 27.68mm wide. It weighs 8.98g.
The notched flake probably date to the Neolithic to early Bronze Age period (-3500 to -1500). | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | -3500
